Benefits of technology

The patent describes a method of creating a printed picture that can make a strong impact on product packaging. The process involves printing ink on a film, applying a layer of primer to the ink and / or film, and then drying or curing the primer. Next, a layer of special varnish is applied to the primer-coated film, and it is curved. The resulting printed substrate is a visually compelling and effective way to advertise products.

Problems solved by technology

While some visual effects, such as holographic effects, result in strong visual impact, they are also expensive to produce.

Embodiment Construction

[0011]The present invention relates to sequentially primed printed substrates. The benefits of the invention can be enjoyed in virtually all applications in which printed substrates can be used. Printed substrates can be used in product packaging, containers, wallpaper, fastening tape, decorative tape, food wraps, paper products, wipes, and the like. The invention will be disclosed herein with respect to the Figures as a preferred embodiment of product packaging.

[0012]As used herein, the term “substrate” refers to any material that can be printed on. Substrates include, but are not limited to, materials such as plastics, plastic films, fabrics, papers, polymer films, non-woven webs or fabrics, woven webs or fabrics. Woven and non-woven webs can be formed from monocomponent fibers, bicomponent fibers, multiconstituent fibers, capillary channel fibers, and the like. Substrates also include blown or cast film materials in a blend of low density polyethylene and linear low density polye...

Abstract

A sequentially primed printed substrate and method of forming the printed substrate are provided. The substrate is formed by the steps of: 1) providing a film printed with one or more layers of ink; 2) applying a layer of primer to the ink and / or film; 3) drying or curing the layer of primer; 4) applying a layer of radiation-curable varnish to the primer-coated film; and 5) curing the varnish.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates generally to printed substrates used to form packages, adhesive tapes, adhesive and non-adhesive labels and sleeves, wall coverings, surface coverings, surface linings, decorative tapes, pouches, envelopes, wraps, and labels. In particular, this invention is related to sequentially primed printed substrates.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]There are a variety of types of packages in which consumer products are delivered to consumers. For many products, the package not only functions as a practical means for transporting and storing the product but also serves as a communication link between the seller and the consumer. Indicia such as labeling, stylized graphics, use of color and contrast, and touch and feel are all signals that can help consumers select the products they desire and forge a strong bond between the consumers and the brands of goods they purchase.[0003]Special packaging and labels have been created to increase ...
